Remember the Nokia Lumia 520? For years it has been the most popular Windows Phone device
The Nokia Lumia 520 remains the most popular Windows Phone
The entry level Nokia Lumia 520 has been the most popular Windows Phone model for years. The device was originally unveiled at MWC 2013, and became available in early April of that year. The unit came with Windows Phone 8 out of the box and was updated to Windows Phone 8.1. Earlier this year, data from cross-promotion network AdDuplex revealed that the Lumia 520 was still the most widely used on the platform with a 12.9% share.
A version for T-Mobile, the Nokia Lumia 521, was also available in April 2013. The unit supported the carrier's 4G HSPA+ and had the same specs and design as the Lumia 520. In November 2013, AT&T offered the Lumia 520 price off-contract at just $49.99 for the holiday season. That was half of the usual $99.99 price charged for the phone by AT&T's GoPhone pre-paid service.
We gave the Nokia Lumia 520 an 8 on our review, noting the value for money objective that Nokia had in mind. And we must say that Nokia must have done something right considering how popular the handset has been for more than three years. You can read the review by clicking on this link.
